    The hired attire for my son's wedding this Saturday includes a rouche tie and appropriately collared shirt.

    This is not something in the normal wardrobe of any of the groomsmen, so I thought I should ask here as the subject - or object - has come up at just the right moment. It really is quite strange how this happens.

    How is the tie best knotted to give the correct look, and what is it?

    Short answer: a four-in-hand knot. More or less loosely tied, to taste.

    Alternatively, omit the "tucking through" of the knot, and secure with a stick-pin.

    Congratulations to all!
